TechCrunch hits a new low; Doris Lessing “ignorant old woman”

Yes, according to Mr. Duncan Riley (of TechCrunch fame), Doris Lessing OBE (and Nobel Prizewinner for Literature) is a bit thick(!).

Absolute comment-based hilarity ensues. My favourite:

Duncan, congratulations! You have succeeded yet again at writing an arrogant and at the same time highly ridiculous post, which has sadly garnered the attention of TC readers — myself being one of them.

TechCrunch has been caught up in quite a bit of scandal recently. I hope they can sort it out; as it’s reputation grows so do people expect it to be increasingly respectable… something we’re clearly not seeing.
